coming up for air and writers block

These questions are always tricky. You always say to yourself, if I had the chance I'd do x y and z differently and maybe a, b, and c bad things/fuckups/wrong turns might not have happened. Thing I always forget when I get caught up in those particular feedback loops (and I do, often) is that sure, if I had the choice, I could obliterate some of the bad things I've done in my life, correct some mistakes, what have you... but in a lot of cases, if certain things hadn't fallen out exactly where I had, I wouldn't be the person I am right now, and a lot of the good things I've got going on currently wouldn't exist or happen. I mean, it's kind of a moot point, as no one's figured out how to make a flux capacitor yet anyway, but I think I can say if I could turn back time, I probably wouldn't do anything drastically differently.

Well, okay, if I could just redo the last three months I could think of a few minor changes, lol. But nothing that life altering.

I'd just like to say that today I am working. And I more or less have been since about 1am, with a break here and there to talk on the phone with ggirl (2am - but to be fair, she was calling from Alaska), IM with 11th_letter (5:30am), sleep (8:30-10) and shower (11am). I love the days when I can just get started and just go go go. Problem is when they happen I have to ride them until they end because I don't know when the next time my concentration will be this good.

Course now I have a problem - I am out of streamable South Park. I finished season 9 this morning and Netflix ain't streaming season 10 yet. I know the episodes are available elsewhere on the net, but this seems like as good of a spot as any to take a breather from the antics of Kyle, Stan, Kenny and Cartman. And I do have Red Dwarf primed and ready to go... so not sure what I'm worried about, lol. The other problem is I'm starting to feel that fuzzy-around-the-edges sensation that heralds caffeine crash. A Dunks run might be in order.

It's a beautiful day out there... I think this evening I'm going to pack up my laptop and walk up to Park Slope and hit the Tea Lounge, just for a change of scenery (and exercise).

If I could travel back in time, why the FUCK would I bother talking to myself? I think "kill Hitler" would have been a little higher on my priority list.

because if time travel was invented, someone would have beaten you to killing hitler and quite frankly all the good stuff anyway.

"If you could travel back in time, what advice would you give to your younger self?"

Sadly, none. I know myself well enough to know that I never take good advice.
